Washington Street War Zone

No excuse – FIX the Washington Street War Zone!

We all know that the road conditions in Hoboken are at an ALL TIME LOW. This includes way back in the day when all you had were horses and dirt roads. Worst ever! And I like to call our “main drag” the Washington Street War Zone due to how I bludgeoned my internal organs feel after driving on it for just a few minutes.

The main “avenue” of any city should ALWAYS be in tip-top shape. It is crucial for the image of the city.

Any excuses you might hear from the bobble-heads at City Hall are simply hot air. Who cares what some “master plan” says, or how much “infrastructure work” needs completion (still a few years away, in fact). Washington Street should be a priority at all times.

People are losing tires on a daily basis throughout the city – at least have pride in our core shopping and dining center.

I make it a point to specifically avoid driving on Washington St. due to the 3rd world like conditions of the road. Why in the hell our city cannot mill and repave this one mile stretch of road dumbfounds me.

Where in gods name do all the property taxes this city collect go anyway – most likely into city workers pockets! Something is truly wrong with this picture!!

The money isn’t going into city workers pockets, it’s going to the multitude of lawyers, planners and consultants that the morons who were elected hired to do pretty much nothing. Take a look around. The parks are filthy, the streets are dirty and potholes are everywhere. All that comes out of City Hall is pure nonsense…meetings, meetings and more meetings and NOTHING gets done.[quote comment=”224199″]I make it a point to specifically avoid driving on Washington St. due to the 3rd world like conditions of the road.
